what is pyria? Does it include thinning of gums.A few months ago I faced problem of bleeding dums and stinky stones sticked to my teeth. At that time doctor told me I HAVE pyria. After treatment I am now good. now dont have bleeding gums and stone on my teeth. But my gums are thin and through them i can see my teeth inside them. Is it a symptom of pyria or something else?

Hi...
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns...

As per your complain it seems that you have a deep infection in gums leading to Periodontitis and the white chunks are Calculi that are calcified deposits and serves as a source for bacterial proliferation and gradually they get deposited and the gums looses attachment over the teeth and leads to recession and loosening of teeth..
There is also gum swelling, bleeding and pain and also pus discharge known as Pyarrohoea..
You should consult a Dentist and get evaluated and scaling of the teeth to remove the infectius deposits followed by antibiotics like amoxicillin and metronidazole and gum paint application will help..
Also get a demonstration of proper brushing technique and do warm saline gargles..


Hope this helps..

Regards..
